Descripción
The environmental sustainability of the actions carried out by the human beings into the environment is a worry for a society aware of the wealthy heritage that they own. The study of environmental measures and the proposal of technical solutions for achieving the integration of those actions show the interest to maintain and preserve this heritage. Rural roads are linear infrastructures that environmentally influence into an important extension of territory, and which main characteristic is the landscape fragmentation derived. The integration process of the road into the environment has to be mainly achieved in the earliest stage of the project. A fair identification of the most important attributes of the landscape and an objective assessment of them could provide important decision criteria for selecting the most appropriate routes. Landscapes of 38 rural roads in Spain has been evaluated and statistically analyzed in a study concerning the identification of the significant attributes as well as the relations among them to determine the weight that they should receive. This aimed to establish the basis for the development of a specific method for landscape assessment around rural roads.
